The Beecher monument fund does not
grow with the expected rapidity. you
never know what is the serious admiration
of the world for a public man until he dies"
said a member of Plymouth church the
other day. "At the time of the great scan
dial the members of the church raised $780,
900 to defend Beecher in no time, but now,
although it is over two months since he
died, and the public have been invited to
contribute, only about $4,000 have been
subscribed to the monument fund. What's
the reason for this great falling off Well,
the principal one is that the man is dead.
But there are many other reasons that have
contributed to this result. Beecher may
have gained more notoriety after the great
scandal, but he has lost much of
the respect of those who had stood by him
in his trial. The Reputation of Blaine in
the last campaign was the one great mistake
of his life, as far as popularity was con-
cerned. Many still believe that he de-
feated the brilliant Republican, leader,
and the schism, that the Mdgwump move
ment made in the church was never ce-
mented. If Beecher had stood by his party
the monument fund would not drag as it

A NATIVE COLONEL has arrived in Cairo from
Suakim who was formerly under Gordon at
Khartoum. He gives an account of the fall of
Khartoum not differing from the majority of
such narratives, except that he states that there
was no treachery. The town was carried by as
sault, owing to the exhaustion of the soldiers
from want of food. He asserts that Gen Cor
don was buried inside the palace and that the
Mahdi was angry at his death. The officer will
be tried by colIrt- martial

THE HARVEST / NEVER SOWED.

l dreamed that little meadow
Was gwen me by the Lord
For thoughts to blossom like daisies,
That dapple the dewy sod.
And in that glorious harvest
MY deeds were the golden grain;
Twas wet by my fearful sorrows,
And reaped by the sickle, Pain.
And Work-oh, he was the farmer,
And Duty his helpmate true,
And Hope was the little lantern
That cheered us the long night through
And when, in the eve, sweet Fancy
Was winding her mellow horn,
Came started, my cares out fitting
Like ravens from midst the corn.
And oft inmy twilight visions
l see that field of my dreams.
Far up in the sky's blue meadow
1t glistcns with golden CLEANS.
but never can reaper gather,
And never the grain he moved,
Alas in the field shines only
The harvest never sowcd

Village Improvement associations

The large number of village improve
ment associations which are being formed
throughout the State, Shows an increas-
ing interest in the appearance of our viii
lagos. 1t is indisputably true that, hereto.
fore insufficient care has been exercised by
citizens in maintaining certain respecta-
bility of fences. walks, cutters and shrub
berry about lots fronting conspicuously
upon streets. The fact that villages are
''sized" by strangers from such features
ought long ago to have awakened enough
public spirit and pride to have made at
least, necessary Improvements. 1t may
be true that the reason of the continued
adversely and failure to grow, may lie in
the uninviting prospects that are presented
to the prospecting visitor. The real ex-
pense attendant on improvements must
be small when each property owner earn
estly co.operates in the work. Clean and
we'll shaded streets lined with straight and
respectable fences are good advertise
ment for any village. In the eyes of
strangers an increased responsibility is
impaired to the resident citizens. The eff
feet can be enhanced by Strengthening up
and repairing tumble down out buildings
but this is matter for individuals rather
than associations, although associations
can create public sentiment sufficiently
strong to bring about such results.
The identifying our villages is step in
the right direction. In addition to the
reasons already stated, there is another Ell

looked 1t will be an effect upon the
citizens themselves. The beautiful APP
peals to the higher elements of human
nature, imparting retinment and cultva-
ton. These qualities though not immed-
lately manifestng themselves will be
surely developed in time under such
encouraging influences. The "don't
care" spirit which causes the " cuttered-
up" condition of things, will be supplanted
by "do care" exhibitions of whole
some pride.
Financially also, villages will be i'm
proved. They will invite desirable parties
to become residents; they will the better
secure the location of industries and en-.

ways beneficial to the public. 1t seems
to be in the Interest of every citizen tina,
these associations receive hearty supper,
and cooperation and that every protection
and ornamentation which can be adopted
by villages should be speedily, if possible,
acquired. The enthusiasm which per-
vades the societies already at work is a
good exponent of the beneficial results at.
tanned by these associations. Let more of
them be formed and the movement in this
respect become general rather than local

Apr 10 h Last Tuesday evening on return

early supper for an aged relative boarding

reply but groaned and moved slightly. Ad-
monishing her to get up ere she took cold he
retired to his room, and about two hours
